Microscopic traffic models focus on the behavior of individual vehicles and their interactions on the road, providing detailed insights into traffic dynamics at a granular level. These models are essential for understanding and predicting traffic flow patterns, vehicle interactions, and the impact of road infrastructure changes on a micro scale.

Microscopic Traffic Models

Behavior of individual vehicles

Interactions on the road

Traffic dynamics refers to the complex and often nonlinear interactions between vehicles, infrastructure, and human behavior that influence the flow and congestion of traffic on road networks. Understanding these dynamics is crucial for optimizing traffic management, reducing congestion, and improving safety and efficiency in transportation systems.

Traffic Dynamics

Traffic Flow Patterns

Vehicle interactions are a critical aspect of transportation systems, involving the dynamic relationship between different types of vehicles, their drivers, and the surrounding environment. Understanding these interactions is essential for improving safety, traffic flow efficiency, and the integration of new technologies like autonomous vehicles.
